Jared demonstrates the concept of warm air rising and cold air sinking using a bottle and balloon experiment. By heating the air inside a bottle, the air expands and rises, inflating the balloon. Conversely, cooling the air causes it to contract and sink, deflating the balloon. This illustrates how temperature affects air density and movement.
